This add-on is a re-upload of the Fastbar add-on that was removed by it’s author. u/ijgnord helped me make it look much nicer on nightmode for MacOS (this is supported by both the nightmode add-on and the nightmode built-in to anki in 2.1.20beta+)
As I do not have any coding skills, this add-on is shared as is and I will not be able to provide support.

just downloaded this add-on, i don’t see the sidebar. is there something I’m supposed to do or click to toggle/enable it? perhaps one of my other extensions like lifedrain or amboss is hindering it from showing? i’ll change my review to thumbs up as soon as the add-on starts working for me, any advice?

Good addon, no issues and does exactly what it says it does

Must have addon, without any doubt. Btw, is there any way to change the icons to the same ones that were in the 2.0? and also, is it possible to center icons horizontally?
👍 2023-12-03
I cannot believe this isn’t a standard Anki feature :) It works perfectly with Anki 23.10 as well.

not working Comment from author before post was edited Which update? What’s not working? Can you send pictures? I don’t get notifications or have any way to chat with you about issues on here so leaving a dislike doesn’t do anything to fix the problem. If you post on Github, we would be happy to look into this and you can switch this to a like :)

I’m using Anki v2.1.23.
Used to work. Got a message to update my add on. Now I get this error. Any help? I’d rather just have the old version of this add-on back:

Thanks for your work. A minor issue though: f I enable either of the two below, latex shortcuts won’t work in 2.1.46 (debian buster):
Extended Tag AddEdit Dialog
Fastbar - with nightmode support
I have posted about this in the Anki forums in case that’s the proper place.
